Description: This is an original accessible book for scholars students activists and the general public on the greatest crisis the world has faced. The authors challenge the widespread notion that a green and peaceful set of technological reforms in the current economic and political system perhaps a green capitalism can prevent disaster. Dying for Capitalism analyzes the triangle of extinction that links capitalism environmental destruction and militarism as a system that cannot sustain life on the planet. The authors analyze how the extinction triangle evolved historically how it functions globally as integral to the world capitalist order and how the United States has become the dominant extinction nation. They also show how recent anti - democratic and anti - scientific cultural and political forces intensify denial of the threat and subordinate health and survival to profit and extreme concentrated power. The book offers a slender path of social and political transformation that can prevent catastrophe. The path requires moving beyond current ruling systems. But possibilities of survival arise from action at local state regional and global levels through multiple strategies and movements that already exist. The authors draw on the history of abolitionism and emancipation from slavery in the United States to show how a system that appears unchangeable can be transformed while describing organizations movements and practices that are models of hope and a shift from the triangle of extinction to the circle of creation.
